The objectives of the present inquiry were to clculte the reltive nd bsolute risks of ll-cuse mortlity bsed on incidence rte rtios, nd summrize these risks for ge, gender, nd rce strt. We conclude tht strt-specific risk summries re more informtive thn single ll-encompssing risk summry, nd tht gender- nd rce-specific strt need to be considered s well s ge-specific strt S. Krger AG, Bsel Introduction Chronic kidney disese (CKD) stging, bsed on estimted glomerulr filtrtion rte (egfr) ctegories, ws recently revised to include risk strt for urinry lbumin-to-cretinine rtio (ACR) [1]. The ssocitions between egfr nd ACR ctegories by ge for ll-cuse mortlity risk nd end-stge renl disese (ESRD) hve been studied in met-nlysis [2]. Our objective ws to compre reltive risks nd bsolute risks for ll-cuse mortlity mong dults strtified by ACR, nd demogrphic ctegories. Previous publictions hve emphsized n ttenution of reltive risk for ll-cuse mortlity for older individuls compred to younger individuls [3 5], nd hve suggested doption of n ge-clibrted definition of CKD. We now report similr pprent ttenution of reltive risk for llcuse mortlity for femle gender nd blck subjects in the study cohort. Rther thn dopting strt-specific definitions of CKD, we believe the sme ultimte gol cn be chieved by dopting strt-specific risk summries ( het mps ) to describe the risk for ll-cuse mortlity. Mterils nd Methods The Resons for Geogrphic nd Rcil Differences in Stroke (REGARDS) study cohort included 30,239 blck nd white individuls who were 45 yers, between Jnury 2003 nd October 2007 [6, 7].

Discussion We describe mortlity risk for REGARDS prticipnts bsed on demogrphic strt, nd ACR ctegories using incidence rtes nd incidence rte rtios for llcuse mortlity.

The reltive risks for ll-cuse mortlity were ttenuted for the older ge strt ( Tble 2 b), while the bsolute risk for mortlity incresed with ge ( Tble 2 c).

5 ACR <30 mg/g ws 1.58 (95% CI ) for ge <60 yers; 1.12 (95% CI ) for ge >60 nd <70 yers; nd 1.13 (95% CI ) for ge >70 yers ( Tble 2 b). In contrst, the bsolute risk for mortlity mong the sme prticipnts ws incresed cross the ge strt: 2.53 (95% CI ) for ge <60 yers; 3.94 (95% CI ) for ge >60 nd <70 yers; nd 8.99 (95% CI ) for ge >70 yers ( Tble 2 c). Similr ptterns were seen cross the sme egfr nd ge strt for ACR >30 mg/g. Previous commentries hve emphsized the ttenution of the reltive risk for ll-cuse mortlity mong older subjects [4]. The present nlysis confirms this finding, but lso extends the nlysis to show the expected increse in bsolute risk for ll-cuse mortlity with incresing ge. Similr observtions bout the increse in mortlity rtes with ge nd ACR levels re described by Hlln et l. [2]. Furthermore, the gender nd rce differences in reltive risk for ll-cuse mortlity shown in Tble 3 nd b suggest tht these strt s well s ge should lso be considered when ssessing the reltive risk for ll-cuse mortlity mong specified cohort of ptients. This conclusion is consistent with longitudinl descriptions of the risk for ll-cuse mortlity described for elderly Swedish women [11]. The KDIGO Controversies Conference Report [10] included het mps for seprte outcome events, including ll-cuse mortlity, crdiovsculr mortlity, ESRD, cute kidney injury, nd progressive CKD. The reltive risk summry tble for ll-cuse mortlity [10] is similr to the bsolute risk summry. It used similr reference groups (ACR <10 nd <30 mg/g, egfr nd ml/min/1.73 m 2 ), with mortlity incidence rtes of 7.0 nd 5.13 deths per 1,000-person yers, respectively. Absolute risk in Tble 2 c ws generted by multiplying incidence rte rtios by the bsolute risk for the reference group, s previously described [10]. As expected, the risk for ll-cuse mortlity incresed with ging. With the gol of confirming single ll-encompssing risk summry scheme [1], Hlln et l. [2] exmined risk summries for ge strt, nd ACR ctegories with met-nlysis of 33 generl popultion cohorts, including over 2 million prticipnts with 112,325 deths, including 27,306 REGARDS prticipnts. Risk for ll-cuse mortlity differ cross ge strt, both for reltive risk nd bsolute risk [2], supporting the use of different risk summries for different outcome events, demogrphic strt, nd egfr nd ACR strt. We conclude tht the differences between reltive nd bsolute risks for ll-cuse mortlity hve not received sufficient emphsis. Furthermore, there my be differences in the bsolute nd reltive risks cross ge-strt tht require further nlyses for gender nd rce strt. The REGARDS cohort is not lrge enough to fully define these strt, nd ws recruited with the gol of including subjects >45 yers of ge, nd n equl number of men, women, nd white nd blck prticipnts. Additionl met-nlysis of combined generl popultion cohorts seems worthwhile. It hs been proposed tht the cutpoints for CKD stges be djusted for ge strt, described s n ge-clibrted definition of CKD [3 5], to ccount for the ttenution of reltive risk for ll-cuse mortlity observed with older subjects. This pproch hs not been widely ccepted [12], nd represents post-hoc modifiction of risk ssessment tht does not ddress the underlying weknesses inherent when such nlyses include egfr s n effect vrible [8]. The current proposl to use seprte het mps for ge, rce, nd gender strt rther thn single ll-encompssing risk summry my ccomplish the bsic gol of providing risk ssessments in CKD tht reflect the demogrphic nd kidney-specific fctors for n individul ptient.
